Conceptual Analysis of Total Quality Management in the Manufacturing Industry in India: An Analytical Study

Abstract

In this abstract, Total Quality Management (TQM) in India's manufacturing sector is conceptually analyzed. TQM is a well-known methodology that emphasizes ongoing development, client happiness, and organizational excellence. TQM is essential for boosting competitiveness and tackling the issues brought on by international markets in the context of Indian manufacturing. The main TQM components—leadership commitment, workforce engagement, process improvement, and customer centricity—are examined in this examination. It investigates how these components fit into the Indian manufacturing sector while taking into account regional cultural, economic, and regulatory concerns. The abstract also analyses how TQM implementation has affected several facets of the manufacturing sector, including customer loyalty, operational effectiveness, product quality, and supply chain management. It also emphasizes the difficulties that Indian manufacturers may have adopting TQM practices successfully. This paper contributes to a better understanding of the function of TQM in promoting sustainable growth, quality improvement, and competitive advantage for Indian manufacturers by evaluating the conceptual framework of TQM and its application in the Indian manufacturing industry.
